Chapter 469: Aftermath
In the final analysis, although the raw rice has been cooked into cooked rice, and the matter has come to this point, Father Qin does not want to infinitely magnify the subsequent impact of this incident, so he roasts his house on the fire. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
As far as the old man is concerned, the best result of this matter is that after someone from the yamen picks up the bandits away, the matter will basically end here.
After all, such a reputation is by no means a very good thing for the Qin family.
Even if the Qin family now has a little ability to protect itself, and will not be wiped out by a casual disaster, no matter how far the Qin family can go, the government and the rivers and lakes will definitely not be able to provoke it.
The old man definitely didn't want to attract the attention of the people in the rivers and lakes.
Therefore, not only did he decide to thoroughly clean the outer wall of the fort immediately after sending the bandits away, but Rao was only a coincidence when he faced the inquiries of the prefect and the county commander.
After all, his own fort wall is strong and strong, not to mention that although he is the leader of "one hand", but his gang, even he has a total of seven people left, and one of the sentry agents has been captured by his own family long ago. As for the main force "Little White Dragon", although there are more than 30 people under his command, they are all strong men, but I have to say that even he himself is a rabble.
Don't talk about it, let's just say that the weapons are equipped, unlike the "one-handed" people and horses, swords, guns and arrows are readily available, and the "little white dragon" is almost a grappling hook for everyone, but the weapons next to it, except for a few pairs of bows and arrows, the rest are harpoons.
Maybe on Changtang Lake, relying on a grappling hook and a harpoon, you can walk on the ground, and no ordinary people can help them, but once you get ashore, this is not worth mentioning.
Openly and secretly, they hope that the two adults can hide their role in this matter as much as possible, even if they can't hide it, don't emphasize it too much.
As for what the prefect said with the county magistrate to report to the court and commend him, the old man was even more afraid of it.
It was originally a matter of self-preservation, but no one expected that the leader would be a thunderous "single hand", let alone that they would win the "single hand" like this.
To tell the truth, if it is only a "little white dragon", it is definitely not worth such a big move by the government.
And the prefect and the county commander had already put a little relief when they saw the Qin family's miserable fortress wall, and then compared with a large stack of sea fishing documents, they corresponded to the figure and appearance of the "single hand" and the rest of the sins, especially the half-dead "single hand" face was disgusting, and repeatedly observed the other half of his face, as well as the wound of the broken arm that had been worn for many years, and finally put a heart back into his stomach.
It should be the "one-handed" himself, without doubt.
It's just that no one could have imagined that such a gangster as "One Hand" would be even weaker than they imagined, and his dress and temperament were no different from that of a scholar.
Happiness is inevitable, but it is inevitable that they are all thinking about one thing in their hearts.
How should this matter be operated, so as to be most conducive to their own performance evaluation, and can also have an explanation for the surroundings along the canal, especially the prefect of Xin'an Province......
As soon as he heard the meaning of Father Qin's words, his heart "fluttered", and he was overjoyed, he didn't expect the Qin family to be so upright, no wonder he could make a fortune in just a few years.
After glancing at each other and pretending to think deeply, they naturally followed the trend.
They also promised Father Qin in a reserved manner that no matter what difficulties the Qin family encountered in the future, they would just go to Lianxi to find them.
Not to mention the Qin family's unspeakable ironing of this move, let's just say that the Qin family is so good in the world, and Tengda's days are still in the future, so take advantage of the fact that you can make a good relationship now, but it's just a gesture.
In particular, the county magistrate also specially left a famous post for Qin's father, and asked Qin Lianbao if Chenguang could come back, and he praised and praised the Qin family......
Inspector Li only smiled on the sidelines.
He had already understood Father Qin's intentions, and after thinking about it again, Father Qin's move was indeed safe, after all, even he had no intention of this, and he was only looking forward to throwing these hot potatoes out as soon as possible.
The common people of Chongtang can watch the capsized boat from the Yellow Crane Tower, pointing fingers at these bandits, but he, the inspection of the Chongtang Inspection Division, is only a matter of cross-examination, and is specially responsible for arresting spies, intercepting escaped soldiers and prisoners, cracking down on smuggling, and maintaining normal business and travel exchanges, but he no longer has the courage to do so.
As long as he thought that "one hand" had been in his back garden like a no-man's land, but he didn't know anything, he had goosebumps all over his body and had restless sleep.
It's just that whether it's Father Qin or Inspector Li, watching the people in the yamen put these half-dead bandits into wooden cages, I really feel a little regretful.
They have already interrogated some relevant facts from the "Little White Dragon" gang.
probably knew that it was indeed as the previous sentinel said, and it was indeed "one hand" who found the "little white dragon", and after a promise, he probably knew that the Qin family could have tens of thousands of taels of silver a year, and the "little white dragon", who had the intention of "single-handedly" with the idol, immediately decided to do a big deal with him. And the "one-handed" also offered to divide the spoils. Because the "little white dragon" is the main force, he is not only responsible for the main attack, but also responsible for escorting money and grain, so he himself only accounts for 30%, and the "little white dragon" accounts for 70%.
After high-fived as an oath, it was agreed that on this dark starry night, the "little white dragon" gathered all the people and horses, and set off overnight from Changtang Lake along the Lianxi to Chongtang to meet with the "single hand", moored the boat in the reeds two or three miles away from the Qin family, and sent people to guard it, planning to wait until the Qin family was captured, and then swing the boat to the big wharf at the door of the Qin family to transport money and grain......
Not to mention that Father Qin and Inspector Li were waiting, even these little boys with shallow experience in the family almost spewed out a mouthful of old blood when they heard it.
How can this "little white dragon" have such a little brain, how can he be the king and hegemon on Changtang Lake?
But not to mention, this "little white dragon" actually hesitated. After realizing that the sentry he sent out was likely to have been captured by the Qin family, he knew that the Qin family would inevitably have a series of preparations, and he really planned to stop there.
But "one-handed" disagreed, feeling that the opportunity could not be lost, and the loss would not come again, even if the Qin family was fully prepared, could they still resist their foolproof attack?
He also regretted that if the "Little White Dragon" was really unwilling, the previous agreement would have to be null and void, but he was willing to spend money to rent all the ships from the "Little White Dragon" in order to facilitate the transportation of money and grain......
The "little white dragon" hesitated, but in the end the silver was good, and the ghost was confused, so he completely boarded the "one-handed" thief ship in a daze.
Even after being taken down by the Qin family, he didn't realize that he and his subordinates were just pawns recruited by "one hand" without spending a single copper, and they were just rotten pawns.
Such a fact makes people powerless to complain.
But so far, Father Qin and Li Patrol have not found the "mouse hole" that made them worried, that is, the gap where "one hand" broke through the defense with the female bandit and drove straight in.
The entire mansion has been searched by Master Chen no less than three times, but there has never been a clue.
The "single hand" was pierced in the face, and although he was drugged, he never came to his senses, and he couldn't come to interrogation at all. And the other four canal bandits who were captured alive in the Dongtou Garden, although their morale plummeted and they knew that there was no possibility of turning the tables around, but because of this, they simply refused to speak. No matter how Inspector Li interrogated, he just couldn't ask half a word.
But Li has limited inspection authority, and he can't really kill people, so he has to suppress this breath.
As for the female bandit, she is also a die-hard, even more than that. Inspector Li once asked someone to invite an old woman who had done something very good and didn't hear or see it, but since he could be specially invited by Inspector Li like this, there must be two interrogation brushes.
But he never spit out half a sentence.
Seeing that the bandits were escorted to the car one by one, Inspector Li had no choice but to ask the prefect's Yamen Prison Division, who was also an old friend for more than ten years, and asked him for help, and he must help ask for it.
That's what people eat, and it's Inspector Li's request, so naturally they don't have a second word.
And Huajiao listened to the sound of gongs and drums in front of her, but she still didn't have the courage to take a look at the "single hand" who was injured by herself, and the female bandit who had a relationship with her.
Fortunately, the people of Chongtang, who surrounded their homes, quickly left with the wooden cage convoy that opened the way in the yamen.
The whole world was quiet, and Sichuan Jiao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The family also breathed a sigh of relief.
Without any hesitation, he began to lead the villagers who had come to help in Liangwan to clean the outer wall of the fort wall and the firewood house where the bandits were imprisoned.
Qin Lianxiong had already taken a long leave of absence in the same hall, and was leading people to burn the filth that had been cleaned from the outer wall of the fort wall and disinfect it with lime.
And Father Qin and Qin Lianhu were discussing and thanking the neighbors.
Although except for the "one-handed" female bandits who jumped out of nowhere, the rest of the defenses in the east garden and on the fort wall are all effective.
Especially the little boys, except for the fact that they were a little at a loss because they faced such a battle situation for the first time, and several of them were injured by the weapons in their hands or their fingers and wrists, and no injuries occurred.
In the east garden, under the strong attack of the canal bandits, although two bandits finally jumped into the garden and damaged some of the white celery, but because they did not understand the topography of the garden, they all stumbled into the ditch and were caught by Qin Lianlong and the little boys.
As for the fort wall, the fort gate was always strong, even if it was violently hit and suffered some external injuries, but it did not fall in the end, and the iron thistle barbed rope on the outer wall of the fort wall also effectively stopped a group of bandits who hoped to be able to climb the wall through the grappling hook.
But Father Qin knew very well that in the final analysis, it was the arrival of the neighbors that became the last straw that crushed the bandits.
Hearing the movement, all the men in the two bays carried their guys and set out.
Especially the old uncle, who is old and strong, went down with a hoe and directly smashed the heel of a bandit.
The family was naturally moved, especially Father Qin, who was full of emotion.
I can't help but wonder if my family would have been able to have the help of their neighbors when they were faced with the robbery and killing of bandits, would they not have buried their century-old family business in one fell swoop.
Of course, such thoughts are just fleeting.
After all, Father Qin didn't know that in fact, after the collapse of the Qin clan, the small families around them were also looted and burned by bandits one by one, and their lives were ruined.
In fact, other bandits also have their own strategies, capture the thief and capture the king first, that's all......
So in any case, people risk their lives to help each other, and of course they have to talk about their hearts.
asked Qin Lianlong to buy a large amount of clothing and food from Chongtang to come back, and Father Qin personally took Qin Lianhu's brothers to the door to thank him.
The neighbors in the two bays refused to accept it, and they all said that they were neighbors, so they should help each other......
In fact, after this incident, the neighbors looked at the Qin family again, and it was very different.
The Qin family was able to survive the strong attack of such a bandit, and even captured the "single hand" that could stop children from crying, and in their hearts, they were already like a Dinghai God Needle. In the future, even they don't have to worry about the night when they are idle.
Father Qin and Brother Qin Lianhu didn't understand everyone's thoughts, but they knew the normal feelings of people, so they naturally didn't think about it.
In this way, it took the family three to five days to deal with the aftermath before slowly returning to the previous pace.
The first few junior characters in the family began to resume classes one after another, but because of the previous lesson, they were not afraid of 10,000, they were afraid of what happened, whether it was the fourth cousin, the fifth cousin and the seventh cousin going out to class, or the Yao family's Du family concubine went to Chongtang to buy chewing and wrapping at home, they would be escorted back and forth by the Qin family brothers.
The three cousins have slowly eased up these days, although they feel that there is no need to be so troublesome, and now there are still people who dare to stretch out their claws to them, but they don't want to ask the elders in the family to worry about them, so they have to accept it silently.
If you don't finish your homework overnight, even if it's late, you have to get together to study the defense of the city. I still feel that the tactics of defending the city are more suitable for my own family, and I am even pestering Father Qin to help make machinery to defend the city.
Father Qin discussed with the Qin Lianhu brothers, and when Qin Lianbao and his party returned, they might have to go to Xin'an Mansion again to make a complete conclusion with Qin Lianbiao.
The three Qin Lianhu brothers were silent for a while, and there was an indescribable feeling in their hearts.
These days, they haven't reminded themselves of Qin Lianbiao, but the old man is right, it's time to make an end.
Qin Lianhu nodded: "Okay, when the third child comes back, let's discuss it again." ”
Qin Lianxiong didn't want to make Qin Lianbiao lose his appetite, so he changed the topic and said with a smile: "The township test ranking should come out in the next two days, this is a great event, even if we don't put a running water banquet, but the in-laws should always get together......"
I didn't expect that before I waited for the good news, I first waited for the henchmen sent by the Xin'an prefect.
